新编英语教程第二册答案unit8dictationandtranslationI. dictationA.Imagine sitting on the smooth floor of a dark room. There are no windows or doors. The walls are so thick that no noise from outside can reach you. At first, you might enjoy the restfulness There would be nothing for you to do. If you were tired, you might fall asleep after a while. But how would you feel when you woke up?If you couldn’t see or hear or smell anything, you wouldn’t know where you were. You wouldn’t know what time it was. Soon you might start see things which are not there. You might see flashing lights, hear dog barking, or smell a cake baking. You might imagine that the floor or the walls were moving. You might feel very warm or very cold. You might even shout to the people outside the room, asking them to let you out.What had been happening? The human mind is deprived of external stimuli it’s used to. It manufactures its own.B.Most people rarely think about how or why they sleep. We need sleep to rest our bodies and our minds. Both are important in order for us to be healthy. It seems there are two purposes of sleep: physical rest and emotional rest.Each night we alternate between two kinds of sleep: active sleep and passive sleep. Passive sleep gives our body the rest that is needed, and prepares us for active sleep, in which occurs. In passive sleep, the body is at rest, and the brain becomes very inactive. If we continue to sleep, we will enter a more active stage, in which the brain goes from being very inactive to being activeand the eyes begin to move rapidly. The eye movement signals that the person is dreaming. This alternating cycle is repeated several times throughout the night. During eight hours of sleep, we dream for a total of one and a half hours, on the average.Many people say that they do not dream , or that they rarely dream. This is not what actually happens, because everyone dreams and in fact, everyone needs to dream in order to stay healthy. The truth is we need both kinds of sleep: We need passive sleep to rest our bodies , and active sleep in order to dream. Dreaming helps us to rest our minds.Translation:A.1.The boy is so obstinate that he won’t listen to anybody’s advice, not even h is parents’.2.After the invention of the new model, the old one, by contrast, seemed very clumsy and slow.3.Since time was very pressing, they had to travel by night as well as by day.4.The consumption of domestic fuel oil varies from 150 gallons a month in winter to practically nothing in July and August.5.Did you have much trouble getting tickets for the exhibition?6.He survived the accident miraculously, but no one else did.7.I was struck by the resemblance between the two men.8.At the conference the general manager winked at me several times, but I still couldn’t figure out what he was hinting at.B.Jim:How’s your toothache?Andrew:It’s gone, thanks. I went to the dentist last night.Jim:Teeth keep causing trouble, and nobody really does anything about toothache. I can’t understand why.Andrew: They can put men on the moon, but they can’t keep people from having trouble with teeth.Jim: Why can’t they transplant teeth the way they transplant hearts?Andrew: I’ve heard they’re working on that. My d entist says they’re working on tooth transplants right now.Jim:On second thoughts, I’m not sure I’d want to eat with some other person’s teeth.Andrew:That’s not how it works. The idea is to develop a plastic tooth that can be put into the hole where your own tooth came out.Jim: Well, that sounds like a good idea.Guided writing:Reference version:Dreams reflect what people are thinking about during the day. There is an old story in China that bears this out. In those days, scholars all had one aspiration: to be a high official, which would bring glory, splendor and great wealth. They studied hard to pass the different levels of examination held by the government. In the Tang Dynasty, there was a scholar named Lu. On his way to the capital to take part in a high level examination, he stopped for the night at an inn. After a long day’s journey, he was both tired and hungry. He dropped down on a stool and the innkeeper started to cook a meal for him. His eyelids dropped and he dozed off. In his sleep, he was awarded the highest honor in the examination, thus becoming one of the high officials, subsequent to which he was showered with money, preciousthings, high tributes and beautiful women. He led a powerful and luxurious life before he fell out of favor with the emperor and was deprived of everything overnight. The shock brought him back to the dilapidated little inn and he found the meal was not yet done. The next morning, after a sleepless night, Scholar Lu started his journey home instead of going to the capital to take part in the examination.。

你会怎么办?这将会如何影响你每天的生活?Born in 1982 in Melbourne, Australia, without any medical explanation or warning, Nicholas Vujicic came into the world with neither arms nor legs. Having had an uneventful pregnancy and no family history to expect this condition, imagine the shock his parents felt when they saw their first born, brand new baby boy, only to find he was what the world would consider imperfect and abnormal.

Little did theyor anyone know that this beautiful limbless baby would one day be someone who would inspire and motivate people from all walks of life, touching lives all over the world.1982年在澳大利亚的墨尔本,没有任何医学上的解释或预兆,尼古拉斯?武伊契奇克来到这个世界,没有双臂也没有双腿。
由于怀孕期平静无事而且也没有可以预测到这种状况的家族史,因此可以想象得到他的父母看到他们第一个出生的男婴,却只发现一个被这个世界认为不完美和畸形的人时的那种打击。
他们的儿子如何过一个正常、快乐的生活呢?带着这世界视为严重残疾的(身体)生活,他又能做什么或者变成什么样呢? 当时他们不知道而且也没有任何一个人知道,这个漂亮的无手足的小男孩有一天会启发激励社会各阶层的人,并且感动全世界的人们。
As Nick grew up he learned to deal with his disability and started to be able to do more and more things on his own. He adapted to his situation and found ways to accomplish tasks that most people could only do by using their limbs, such as cleaning teeth, brushing hair, typing on a computer, swimming, playing sports, and much more. As time went by, Nick began to embrace(欣然接受)his situation and achieve greater things.(承上启下句)In grade seven Nick was elected captain of his school and worked with the student council(学生会)on various fund-raising events for local charities and disability campaigns.伴随着尼克的成长,他学会了如何应对他的残疾并能够开始独自做越来越多的事情。
他适应了他的状况,并找到方法完成大多数人只有通过使用他们的四肢才能做到的事情,如刷牙,梳头,敲打电脑,游泳,运动,还有更多。
随着时间的流逝,尼克开始坦然接受他的状况并取得更大的成就。
在七年级,尼克被选举为学校的队长,与学生理事会合作,致力于当地的慈善事业和残疾人运动的各项筹款事宜。
After school Nick went on with further study and obtained a double bachelor degree majoring in accounting and financial planning. By the age of 19, Nick started to fulfill his dream of encouraging others by sharing his story through motivational speaking(励志演讲). He found the purpose of his existence, and also the purpose of his circumstance. Nick wholeheartedly believes that there is a purpose in each of the struggles we encounter in our lives and that our attitude towards those struggles can be the single most effective factor in overcoming them.毕业后,尼克接着进修并获得会计和财务规划的双学士学位。
到了19岁,尼克已经开始以通过励志性的演说分享自己故事的方式去实现自己鼓励他人的梦想。
他找到了他存在的目的,以及处于他这种状况的目的。
尼克始终认为,在我们的一生中遇到的每一个困难都有其目的,并且我们对于这些困难的态度则会成为克服它们的唯一最有效的因素。
Now at 27 years old, this limbless young man has accomplished more than most people even twice his age. Nick recently made the massive move from Brisbane, Australia to California, USA, where he is thepresident of an international non-profit organization(非盈利组织), and also has his own motivational speaking company, Attitude Is Altitude. Since his first motivational speaking engagement(约定;演讲)back when he was 19, Nick has traveled around the world, sharing his story with millions of people, speaking to a range of different groups such as students, teachers, youth, business men and women, entrepreneurs, and church congregations(会众)of all sizes. People ask Nick, "How can you smile?" Then they realize there's got to be something more to life than meets the eye if a guy without arms and legs is living a fuller life.现在到了27岁的年龄,比起大多数甚至年长他两倍的人,这位无四肢的年轻男子取得了更多的成就。
最近,尼克的行动很广泛,从澳大利亚的布里斯班到美国的加利福尼亚,他成为那里的一个国际非营利组织的主席,而他也有自己的励志演讲公司——态度决定一切。
尼克19岁时,开始他的第一次励志演讲活动,他周游世界,与数百万人分享他的故事,向众多的不同的群体演讲,比如学生、教师、青年、商务男女、企业家以及各种大小的教会团体。
人们询问克,“您是怎样一笑置之的呢?”接着他们意识到,如果一个没有四肢的人过得比普通人更充实,那么生活的含义必定超出了我们目光所及的范畴。
Nick shares with his audiences the importance of vision and dreaming big. Using his own experiences in worldwide outreach(推广)as examples, he challenges others to examine their perspective(洞察力)and look beyond their circumstances. He shares his view of ceasing to see obstacles asproblems, but instead begin to see them as opportunities to grow and reach out to others. He stresses the importance of our attitude being the most powerful tool we have at our disposal and illustrates how the choices we make can have a profound effect on our lives and the lives of those around us. Nick shows through his own life that the major keys in fulfilling our biggest dreams are persistence and choosing to embrace failure as a learning experience, rather than allowing the guilt and fear of failure to paralyze us.尼克与他的听众分享了眼界和远大梦想的重要性。
